4/ Wilder Wood Restaurant & Bar

This 100 percent gluten-free restaurant has been serving the Austin area for over 15 years, first as Wildwood Bakehouse, and now as Wilder Wood. In addition to the full food and drink menu, you’ll find a variety of breads, muffins, pastries, and other specialty desserts.

If you’re not looking for dessert (just a meal that tastes like dessert), might I suggest an item on the Sunday brunch menu? You can’t go wrong with the fluffy Belgian waffle, topped with whipped cream and fresh strawberries.

5/ Better Bites Bakery

Get ready for your fridge to be overflowing with Better Bites Bakery’s packaged goodies! These dairy-, soy-, egg-, gluten-, and peanut-free treats taste like pure indulgence.

Founder Leah Lopez started making her Better Bites cupcakes, cake balls, and brownies when her son Gabriel was diagnosed with severe food allergies. Now, you can find her melt-in-your-mouth chocolatey treats–free of the top eight most common allergens–at several grocery stores in Austin.

Now available at Royal Blue Grocery, Whole Foods, Central Market, HEB, and Natural Grocers – Website
